This makes me happy to see that someone else returned to work "semi early". My doctors thought I was crazy that I wanted to only take a week off. I would have gone crazy taking more than a week off. But I was sleeved 8/7 and I feel fabulous. On all liquids. I'm over them, but so far 12 lbs down since day of surgery!!! It's weird to think it was just over a week ago for me.

For those who did not tell work what surgery they were having, how did you explain the weight loss? I'm 4 days post surgery, 10 lbs down...but at this rate, when I go back to work, I'm sure SOME weight loss would be a little noticeable. I know I'll lose more over the next few months..but I didn't tell my work why I needed the time off, just did. Any suggestions on what to say? I work in as a private event coordinator so image is almost half the job. All the ladies I work with are so weight and fashion savvy that I don't want to tell them that I had surgery because they'll see it as the easy way out.
I also know it's none of their business really...but I don't think they'll just let me say "oh liquid diet..no big deal." Any one else been through this and not know what to say?
